Start the In Home Spa Treatment from Massage Chairs

By James Knolan

A day at the Day Spa is just a wonderful experience. There are so many treatments to choose from and you know you will be revitalized when you are done. The soothing relaxation and pampering is just what the doctor ordered. The day spa is always something I looked forward to doing, but I am just not finding the time to go as much. With the stress of the new economy upon us, we are all working harder to stay where we are at. Although, I do not make it to the day spa as much, I have found massage chairs to be a very convenient supplement for my massage therapy.

Just as science has advanced, so has the massage recliners produced today. Electronics companies like Panasonic produce massage chairs with tremendous capability. These chairs can massage you from your head to your toes. These massage therapies are very effective. Many of the technologies are designed at replicating hand movements. The Real Pro Ultra uses its Swede-Atsu technology to provide realistic feeling massages.

One of the biggest advantages of having a massage chair of your own is its accessibility. The convenience of having a massage at any time you want or need is fantastic. You do not have to go at a set time. You can take your time or just grab a quickie before work. You can do other things while you are getting a massage as well--for those that really can't relax!

Do you enjoy a foot reflexology massage at the day spa? It is wonderful to have your feet massaged to remove the aches and pains. Your feet are the gateway to full body relaxation. Massage chairs like the Omega Montage Premier Massage chair have a foot reflexology massage. The Montage Premier uses gentle or firm air pressure to squeeze, hold and release your feet. Also, there are reflexology nodes that stimulate your reflexology points on your feet helping your entire body to relax. Imagine coming home, taking off your shoes and getting a nice 15 minute reflexology foot massage after a long day.

What is one of the more relaxing elements of a day spa? We enter a dimly lit room with easy music at low volumes playing. The music is great to take your mind to other areas. Part of the experience of relaxing is letting go of our pressures and worries. Get the preoccupation with the latest problem or opportunity out of our mind for a little while goes a long way. The best massage chairs come with MP3 music players. They usually have a music stick where you can download your favorite music. Some massage recliners mimic their movements from the rhythm of the music. Turn down the light and turn up the music and let the relaxation begin.

I wish I could snap my fingers and my private massage therapists would appear. Until I figure out how to do that, massage chairs provide an effective and economic alternative. They certainly deliver a thorough and invigorating massage treatment. I can use it as much or as little as I like. I can pinpoint exactly where I need more treatment and I can keep it there to work out all the kinks. I put on the headphones, play some soft music and let my massage chair recliner take me to the heights of relaxation.
